| It took seven years. Received decision from the Veterans’ Board of Appeals last Friday. Granted for thyroid cancer and ionizing radiation. You guys said it could not be done. |

Congratulations. Looks like persistence wins the day. I hope it helps your health situation. You have helped not only yourself but other veteran's who have found themselves in similar circumstances. I wish more help had been available for Paul Perris (PEP). But, I am thankful for your contribution to fellow veteran's in need of help from the VA. Again, congratulations and the best of health to you. ------------- It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues.~Abe Lincoln SS-393, SSBN-610(B), SSBN-624(G), SSN-591 USSVI Life Member; Holland Club; Plank Owner, Smoky Mtn.
